This years monster drawing rally was an absolute blast. Each year the Portland Art Museum raises thousands of dollars at this event to support their free school and education programs. It was an honor to participate!

These are both incredible and inspiring artists and I am excited to have them in my collection.Coincidentally I had just received a package from Shortbox with my copy of Molly Mendoza’s beautiful comic “The Worst”.

Last month I took a step out of my comfort zone and did something I had never done before.... Along with 80 other artists, I drew in front of a crowd for an hour to raise money for free education programs at the Portland Art Museum. Although my hands shook terribly for the first 15 minutes, I eventually settled in my groove and made 6 drawings.

Here's a few other artists I started following after the event! (I was too nervous during the event to talk to anyone) The rest of the artists can be found here at the museums event page.
